Seattle

Seattle, known as the Emerald City, is unique in everyway.

Seattle sports a compact and vibrant downtown area, which is perfect for exploring on foot. When you arrive at SeaTac airport, hop aboard the Sound Transit (Seattle’s light rail) and enjoy the 37-minute ride into Westlake Center, which is only a few blocks from the beautiful boutique hotel, Inn at the Market.

Teatro ZinZanni is too much fun to miss. Life is good with a combination of great food and superb entertainment.

On Saturday, begin the day with a crumpet treat at The Crumpet Shop. You’ll go back for more, we promise. Your morning is filled with Pike Place Fish Market, the Seattle Art Museum and lunch at the incredible Steelhead Diner. With that wonderful full feeling, take the Underground Tour, sample some cheese at Beecher’s and wine at The Tasting Room. For the evening fare, you won’t find a better spot than Elliott’s Oyster House. The evening is young and your table waits at Tula’s Jazz Club. Finish the evening with a dazzling view of Seattle from atop the Space Needle.On Sunday take a relaxing breath with a ferry ride to Bainbridge Island, lunch at the Harbor Public House. Once back on shore, stop off at Ye Olde Curiosity Shop to pick up souvenirs for yourself and friends back home.

Head home with that short ride to SeaTac on the Sound Transit. We hope you’ll return soon for more Seattle fun! Our walking guides include fun places to visit and what to do in Seattle
